[NFB-Science] Drawing Tools for Intro to Engineering Design

[Cheryl Fogle-Hatch]

Hi Nick,

I have read your threads, and you are getting a lot of great advice.

Have you considered a mixed approach of analog and digital technology?
For example, if you used any of the low-tech tactile products, you
would have something like a sighted student's sketch pad for making
drawings. Then if you wrote or had a reader write on the paper, you'd
have a key. Then you could take a photograph for a digital copy to
submit to your professor as proof of your original idea. At that
point, if you had to use a reader to program inaccessible software,
you have a record documenting your understanding of concepts that is
independent of knowledge of a particular software package.

Just a few thoughts--the engineers on this list might have a different opinion.
